Sometimes people find help in unlikely places - when they need it most.
For former Panthers safety Tre Boston, it was at a Charlotte gas station.
Boston, who recently was released by Carolina, told reporters on Wednesday that a divine intervention at that gas station ultimately led him to his decision to sign a one-year deal with the Chargers after meetings with them, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Buffalo Bills.
Boston said that after he met with all three teams, he headed back to his home in Charlotte to “pray for clarity” and hit up a local gas station - even though he said he had half a tank left - because he saw a 19-cent decrease in price.
